Head coach Fergus Pringle has made six changes to the starting XV as the Super6 squad prepare to head to Ayrshire Bulls on Saturday (3pm).

For the FOSROC Super6 clash at Millbrae, Finn Hobbis, Campbell Wilson and Michael Badenhorst return to start up front.

In the backs, Roan Frostwick, DJ Innes and last week’s try scorer Kody McGovern start.

Gregor Nelson and Ali Harris come into the squad on the bench for the first time in the new-look competition.

“We’ll need a quality performance”

The squad make the trip to Ayrshire top of the table with three wins from three, but the Bulls are in form too having won their last two matches against the Boroughmuir Bears and the Southern Knights.

“We head to Millbrae for our third away fixture in four games knowing we’ll need a quality performance to come out on top,” Pringle said.

“Our squad have shown real character on the road and we want to step up again after a mixed performance against Stirling.”
